Since the Meiji era, this studio has passed down the art of metal engraving through five generations, adding distinctive value to various metalworks. Today, its refined techniques are being carried on from master artisans to emerging talents.Each Chokin Wind Chime features Japanese motifs engraved as complementary front and back designs, where the vivid expression on one side is echoed by the lingering resonance on the other.
